Application

1. Solvent: tetrahydrofuran is a polar solvent that can dissolve many organic and inorganic substances. Due to its low boiling point and high solubility, THF is widely used in solvents, reaction media and extractants in organic synthesis, polymer industry, drug synthesis and other fields.

2. Polymer synthesis: THF is widely used as a polymer solvent, such as polyurethane, polycarbonate, etc. It can provide a uniform dispersion, which helps in the synthesis and processing of polymers.

3. Pharmaceutical industry: chemical oxolane has many applications in the pharmaceutical field. It can be used as a solvent and delivery agent for drugs, helping to absorb and penetrate drugs. At the same time, THF can be used in the preparation of drug intermediates and synthetic drug raw materials.

4. Electronics industry: THF can be used in the manufacturing process of electronic devices, such as coatings, solvents and cleaning agents. It helps to provide better solubility and processability and is widely used in semiconductor, coating and battery fields.

5. Laboratory applications: tetrahydrofuran is a common solvent and reaction medium in chemical laboratories, widely used in organic synthesis, synthetic chemistry, extraction and chromatographic experimental operations.
